Hello Experts,
I have a query regarding Muslims property distributions.
There are an old couple have 2 sons & a daughter, unfortunately one of the son died leaving behind his 4yrs old daughter & wife. The old couple has acquired some properties and the deceased son's wife wants the old couple to gift any one property on her daughter's name(i.e., grand daughter of old couples). However the old couple are not willing to gift the property as their may be a threat to the property, as if in need of money their daughter-in-law might sell the property, thus the mother of the deceased son has executed a WILL on her grand daughters name bequeathing her property which she acquired through a gift settlement deed. However the daughter-in-law & her family members are threatening the old couples with dire consequences that if they won't execute a gift settlement deed in favour of the grand daughter. Now the old couples are worried as the family members of their daughter-in-law are pressurizing them.
Now query is apart from filing a complaint before the police, what other measures can be taken for the safety of the Old Couples and any other relief's according to Muslim Law.
Plz suggest.
Thank You.
